TfL 25: Millennium Origins and TfL Memories - with Babatunde Aléshé

Do you remember where you were at the dawn of the new millennium (if you're old enough to remember, that is) Tim Dunn takes you back to the year 2000 to chart the origins of Transport for London, which was created that year. In a whirlwind trek across London, Tim is joined by guests including comedian Babatunde Aléshé outside the O2, TfL boss Andy Lord in the high-security Surface Control Centre, and Archives Manager Tamara Thornhill deep in the archives office, to discuss what TfL is, what makes it so special, what came before and what might be coming next… This is episode one of a brand new four-part series on TfL 25, celebrating the 25th birthday of Transport for London. _________________________   Mind the Gap is the Official Podcast of TfL, created by TfL. _________________________ In his interview, Babatunde mentions his tour and his website, which you can find here: babatundealeshe.com _________________________ A special thanks to the TfL25 corporate sponsors of this special edition podcast, they are:  A.J Wells, Alstom, Arriva, First Bus, Go Ahead London, Keolis Amey Docklands, Links Signs, Metroline, Siemens, Stagecoach, Stewart Signs and Transport UK
